Mayor George Bray provides update on Marriott Aloft hotel project

During Thursday's special called Paducah Board of Commissioners meeting, Mayor George Bray provided a progress update for the Marriott Aloft hotel to be constructed at 519 North 3rd Street.

The hotel has been designed with the plans submitted to the state for approval. The city is also waiting for final approval from the Corps of Engineers on the project. The $15 million private investment is proposed to have approximately 120 rooms. Groundbreaking is scheduled soon.

The property is adjacent to the Holiday Inn Paducah Riverfront and within walking distance to the Paducah Convention Center complex in downtown Paducah.
